It's not that complicated. The minimum wage is always zero. Whatever form of theft the govt engages in cannot be fixed with more govt. The closer govt mandates are to zero, the fewer explicit govt obstacles there are to prevent upward mobility. If there are still hidden problems like inflation or govt spending then those should be addressed too (ideally with tech like Bitcoin), but you cannot fight govt with govt.

The incentives surrounding any force funded centralized authority are always going to be corrupting & aimed at destruction. All well intended govt programs will accomplish exactly the opposite of what was intended. And the most successful govt programs will always be those never intended to do any good at all.

I do agree and understand, what is complicated is how to unravel with the least amount of harm and to what end. I do see that bitcoin can reset the time preference horizon of the current system, as well as consolidate technolcal advancements buy incorporating them in to a new system of exchange and storage, but it is just a reset. The emperor has no clothes only because he's putting on new clothes. The kid flipping burgers has not escaped the debt and servitude promised by his ancestors (government). Their entire society and government are the combined result of it, there is no rite or wrong or morality to it. As you say the minimum wage is always 0, so every thing else is just perception, a tool to analyze, measure, manipulate. I dont believe I'm trying to argue just using what you said to ramble myself.
